Onemanga is a blast right now, or at least what's left of the Naruto fanbase. People are talking about being disappointed by Kishi and his writing and honestly everytime I see that comment I want to bang my head on the wall. How can anybody, except those who blindly ship NH/SS have any faith in Kishi after the last 10 or so chapters of Naruto plus his interviews? I can't even wrap my head around that. He's shown how little he cared about part of the fanbase (NS) fans as a whole or his story. There was never anything to expect from this Gaiden or anything coming from the Naruto franchise.
The only chapter I read of this Gaiden was the one where Sasuke attacked Sarada and that was because I joined this forum XD. The rest was spoilers I caught elseqwhere. It was clear as rock from the get go that this Gaiden would be about SS getting their "happy ending". Sakura was always Sarada's mother no matter what. I mean how do you excpect anything more from the same guy who basically said he deliberately wrote parallels between NS and MK, Sakura and Kushina, just as red hearing? I never had any sympathy for Sakura, a little bit for Bolt and Sarada. But I felt more sympathy for Bolt than Sarada because I knew that in the end no matter what happened, no matter what Sasuke ever did, it would always be okay for Sakura and Sarada. What their speshul darling/papa Sasuke does is never bad, the mom started this custom the daughter falls in line too. Attempts to harm them are overlooked, like mother like daughter. That's the Uchiha family in a nutshell, that's the Naruto manga Kishi likes and what I expected from him after last year. I can't even waste time on reading or having interest in anything related to Kishi because there's nothing left ther.
But I guess the one hilarious thing that came out of this is seeing the NH and SS fans taking shots at each other XD. Now more NH are calling Kishi a bad writer and SS a kitten pairing like... wow, really only now? Or is it because of the inexistent Hinata and Himawari?
SS are also taking shots at Hinata Bolt and Himawari.
the byakugan wasn’t passed down but irrelevancy sure was
I honestly prefer Naruto family to Sasuke but this is so true though. So in a way congratulation Kishi on dividing your canon pairing fandom even more?
